Compare the difference in weight between the original large processor and the mini prep. Guess which one would choose to use! works as well for smaller quatities thiugh less versatile. Great little product. This is my second for a second home. (Got the first one free for super market stamps...)
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was tired of making pesto in a blender that was hard to clean and the pine nuts get stuck under blades so I got this mini-prep processor. It was amazing! Easy to use, made great pesto and so simple to clean.

This is our second mini-prep from cuisinart. We replaced our 12-yr old one when the buttons finally wore out. It does not always chop consistently, but that't the only complaint.. we use it almost every day.

The inside of the bowl is smooth which makes scraping out chopped product easy. It works flawlessly. So far I've used it mostly to chop onions and garlic. You can stop it at the particular size you desire or grind it down to mush. Love it, and you will too!

I absolutely love my little red mini prep plus food processor. I use it to make hummus and Guacamole so far.
*There are instructions for cutting hard cheeses such as Romano, Asiago and Parmesan. Prepping onions and garlic was very easy and fast. The blade is sharp and does a very good job of cutting garlic. The size is perfect for my needs.
It came well packaged and secure from drops and bumps. The manual is very easy to read and includes tips, recipes, cleaning, maintenance and trouble shooting information as well as operating techniques.
Recipes include lemon butter, pesto, basic vinaigrette, tapenade, guacamole, mini cheesecakes and many more.
There is minimal sound for a small processor as compared to much larger ones. You mainly pulse which require short burst of processing and sound. Grinding requires the same action and should not be pulsed longer than one minute or damage will be caused.
**If you are heavy handed this processor may not be for you. You may need to pay more for what you are looking for. I read a lot of reviews before making my decision as what would be best for my needs.
The Cuisinart instruction booklet covers everything for the mini-prep plus. This has saved me time and I love using it. It's going to be my personal sous chef in the kitchen.
The color is a beautiful metallic red. There is no top-hole for pouring and clean up was easy by rinsing off and soaking work bowl for hand wash or top dishwasher safe. **BPA free. Small plastic spatula included for side scraping and should be put in cutlery basket for washing. Looks more like a white plastic knife. I prefer hand washing to keep the plastic work bowl and top from dulling in dishwasher.
*Read instructions even if you think you know everything. *18 month warranty and you can register online at Cuisinart. com.
If you fill the mini-prep plus half full there are no spills or blowback as a reviewer suggested on one site which happened to her. Just follow the booklets instructions and you will enjoy and use for a long time. Spanish and English Instructions.
*You can order additional processor cups from Cuisinart Customer Service Department at 1-800-726-0190.

I love this little kitchen gadget. It's easy to use and does a perfect job chopping vegetables for cooking and salads. It cleans up easily and stores confidently on the countertop, not using up valuable space.
